Summary

Port Richmond School For Visionary Learning is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Staten Island, New York, with 376 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #31, which is ranked 403 out of 874 districts in the state.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending, Port Richmond School For Visionary Learning consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in English Language Arts and Math proficiency. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 31.58% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 65.32% in the district and 54.15% statewide. The school also struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools for English Language Learners and in the bottom 20% for Hispanic students and students with low socioeconomic status.

When compared to nearby elementary schools in the same district, such as PS 54 Charles W Leng and PS 30 Westerleigh, Port Richmond School For Visionary Learning performs significantly worse across all grade levels in ELA and Math proficiency. This suggests the school may not be effectively allocating its resources to support student learning and address the specific needs of its high-poverty student population, which could contribute to the school's declining performance over the past few years.
